Lenise Bent | Audio Engineering Blondie's Autoamerican

EP. 06

In this episode, I talk with Pro Audio Engineer Lenise Bent. A hidden legend in her own right, Lenise is known for her work on huge rock classics such as Steely Dan's Aja and Supertramp's Breakfast In America, as well as for being the first female recording engineer to be recognized with a platinum album for Blondie's Autoamerican.

Lenise and I talk about her experience working with Debbie Harry, Chris Stein and the multitudes of artists who contributed to Autoamerican, and we dig into each song to discover the process and creative intent behind this unique genre-melding album.
